About the role

So far we've run finance out of spreadsheets, outsourced bookkeeping, and founder intuition.
You'll live in the data, turn it into decisions the founders actually use, and bring financial rigor to a team that has been moving on instinct.

Responsibilities

Build the financial model from scratch: Own the company's three-statement model, budget, and forecast. Make it the source of truth the founders rely on for every major decision.
Run FP&A end-to-end: Drive budgeting, forecasting, and the planning cadence. Track actuals vs. plan, explain variances, and translate the numbers into clear recommendations.
Live in the data: Pull your own numbers, build KPI dashboards, and turn messy data into clean insight. You won't wait for someone to hand you a report - you'll build it.
Model the big decisions: Build scenarios for pricing, hiring, compute spend, and new bets so the team can see the financial consequences before committing.
Support fundraising and the board: Help build investor and board materials, own key metrics, and assemble the analysis behind the company's story.
Partner with GTM and Product: Work on pricing, packaging, and monetization so growth and margin move together.
Keep the basics tight: Track cash and runway, and manage the relationship with outsourced accounting/payroll partners so the operational side stays accurate while you build the strategic side.
Have 6+ years in strategic finance, FP&A, investment banking, private equity, consulting, or a high-growth startup finance team - with real hands-on ownership, not just slide support.
Are an exceptional modeler who can build a clean three-statement model and a fast back-of-envelope answer with equal rigor.
You bias toward action, communicate proactively, and own outcomes end-to-end.
